FAQ

CLASS TIME

Students learn a variety of skills from basic through advanced levels of baton twirling, dance and pom. Each class includes proper technique and drill segments. Time in class is also spent on preparing for performance opportunities that arise throughout the year. In the spring, a recital is held for families and friends to attend. Teamwork, self-discipline, poise, coordination, and leadership are important skills that students will gain from participating at Castle Rock Stars Baton and Dance. These important qualities will carry over into additional aspects of each student’s life, and, it is hoped, will make a positive difference!
